Cache sizes are different on different machines

user-2045

I dont understand this. I have a batch file with the command
get_iplayer ".*" >D:\IPLlist.txt

this has been working for ages on my PC and laptop. Having recently bought a  Windows tablet,
I installed get_iplayer on that and the above batch file gives me a full list of over 5000 BBC programes
However, installing the same version of get_iplayer, 3.09 and now 3.12 on the PC and laptop, results in
a list of around 4890 items. Nothing I have done, removing the program and re-installing, for example
results in the list on those two machies whilst on the Windows tablet, a Lenovo Yogabook, the list is now
6295 items long???

Anybody any ideas??

Cheers

Hi all
Found a solution on one of the threads after trying all else-

get_iplayer --cache-rebuild --type=tv,radio

This did it on the 2 machines which have been mis-behaving..

Cheers
P
